While Tacko Fall nearly pulled off his first career 20-point, 20-rebound game, teammate Tremont Waters was busy breaking ankles and dishing out assists.
The two Boston Celtics rookies helped lead the Maine Red Claws to a 125-93 win on assignment over the Capital City Go-Go in a matinee special. Fall recorded 18 points and a career-high 20 rebounds while Waters 16 points, four rebounds, four assists and one crazy crossover.
The crossover by Waters was captured on video by Carolina Panthers linebacker Jermaine Carter and posted to Twitter by Chris Grenham of Forbes. The NFL player added the highlight to his Instagram story, which was re-posted by Waters himself.

Carter was seen at the game with Go-Go general manager Pops Mensah-Bonsu and Cincinnati Bengals linebacker LaRoy Reynolds as the team hosted a contingent of local children for Education Day.
Although Waters missed the shot, Fall was there to clean it up and finish the play off with a putback dunk as the Red Claws were putting the finishing touches on the blowout victory.
